Electric Vehicles

Mississippi Power is finding ways to help customers who purchase electric vehicles. We offer the standard residential rate options for customers with plug-in electric vehicles. In the future, we plan to have Electric Plug In Vehicle Rates.

All electric vehicles have batteries and need to be plugged in to recharge. Today's vehicles are powered by lithium ion batteries. These batteries hold their charge efficiently and have no memory effect, which means you don't have to run down the battery completely before recharging. The level of charging that you need depends on the type of vehicle you purchase as well as the amount of miles you drive on a daily basis.
